'Percentage-wise' is what you are saying is good for those seniors making over $80,000 k per year.

BOTH are "spreading the wealth" and that is only fair.

Look are your tax forms, the more you make, the higher the percentage the tax rate is ... until you hit the big time ... then you can afford to hire people to keep your tax rate as low as possible.

I had clients who's income taxes were over $2 mil per year ... friggin' INCOME TAX ... OVER $2 mil per year.

They complained to me about it, until I offered to switch my income and my taxes for their income and their taxes ... ... suddenly ... they did not really see a problem paying their taxes and not having my income.
